Scientists at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have produced a roadmap that can guide scientists on how to design and build graphene-based nanostructures that can be customized for applications in electronics, photovoltaics and other areas.

Yarns made from carbon nanotubes are the power behind a new generation of artificial muscles developed by an international team of researchers from Australia, Canada, Korea and the U.S. The work could lead to low-cost, simple-to-produce novel nanomotors for a wide range of applications, according to the researchers.

NanoScienceWorks.org talks with the Dr. Aravind Agarwal, of Florida International University Mechanical and Materials Engineering Department, and author of Carbon Nanotubes: Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites.
